"Second,
that Act is a naturalization Act of Congress and surely a natural born
citizen does not need a naturalization Act of Congress to be a "natural"
born citizen." Rest at link above.

And,
finally, Masin's granddaddy:

"As
demonstrated above and in the thoughtful examinations of the scholars
whose materials are mentioned herein, it must be acknowledged that the
arguments against finding a child born outside the United States to
a non-diplomat or non-military citizen of the United States are not
facetious and the issue can never be entirely free of doubt, at least
barring a definitive ruling of the United States Supreme Court. While
absolute certainty as to this issue is only available to those who actually
sat in Philadelphia and themselves thought on the issue, having weighed
the arguments as they are presented by those trying to understand the
Framers’ intent, I CONCLUDE that the more persuasive legal analysis
is that such a child, born of a citizen-father, citizen-mother, or both,
is indeed a “natural born Citizen” within the contemplation
of the Constitution. As such I CONCLUDE that Senator Cruz meets the
Article II, Section I qualifications and is eligible to be nominated
for President. His name may therefore appear on the New Jersey Republican
primary ballot."

What
Masin and all of Cruz's cheerleaders skip over is the word parents.
Not parent, but parents. Masin's statement that a child born of either
citizen parent or both, a free for all, is natural born.

"Since
my last report, many people have asked why the definition in Minor v.
Happersett of a “natural-born citizen” (as a person born
in the US to parents who are citizens) is binding legal
precedent. The answer is in the Court’s holding that Virginia
Minor was a US citizen…because she was born in the US to parents
who were citizens. That part of the actual holding is listed in the
official syallbus of the case."

"The
Constitution does not, in words, say who shall be natural-born citizens.
Resort must be had elsewhere to ascertain that. At common-law, with
the nomenclature of which the framers of the Constitution were familiar,
it was never doubted that all children born in a country of parents
who were its citizens became themselves, upon their birth, citizens
also. These were natives, or natural-born citizens, as distinguished
from aliens or foreigners. Some authorities go further and include as
citizens children born within the jurisdiction without reference to
the citizenship of their parents. As to this class there have been doubts,
but never as to the first."

Words
have meaning - especially in the law. Chief Justice Waite said parents,
not parent.

Thoughtful
scholars? Bull. Masin cherry picked a few articles off the Internet
which would provide the basis for his decision. Now, he says: "It
must be acknowledged that the arguments against finding a child born
outside the United States to a non-diplomat or non-military citizen
of the United States are not facetious and the issue can never be entirely
free of doubt, at least barring a definitive ruling of the United States
Supreme Court" but goes on to rule Cruz is eligible!

If
the issue can never be entirely free of doubt barring a definitive ruling
by the U.S. Supreme Court, just how is it, Masin, you just decided to
MAKE LAW with your ruling? Because that's exactly what he did. If he
truly meant free of doubt barring a definitive ruling by the U.S. Supreme
Court then why make any decision? Well, I think we all know the answer
to that one.

Now,
either Judge Masin is stunningly ignorant or he was deliberately deceptive
ignoring historical facts and court cases to rule for political
expediency. In my mind there's no question it was political
expediency. But one thing for sure, his decision is rot and will be
used against Prof. Williams in his challenges in eight other states
unless he's successful with an appeal. Masin has green-lighted
Ted Cruz to continue with his fraud against we the people and staying
in the race. As for Masin, he is a disgrace to the very robe
he wears and the oath he took, but then again, this pretty much sums
up individuals like Masin: “Is there anything more shameful than
the man who lacks the courage to be a coward?” -Peter Blaunder

On
April 13, 2016 (at 11:30 am) Victor Williams filed an "Exception"
(protest) with the New Jersey Secretary of State to respectfully but
strongly disagree with the "Initial Decision" of administrative
hearing officer/judge Jeff Masin.

(The
media has uniformly misreported that Masin was a Judge-- he is not --
Masin is a hearing officer not a member of the New Jersey judiciary.)

"In
addition to detailing the substantive errors in Mr. Masin's determination,
Williams raised serious ethical and procedural concerns regarding how
the New Jersey Office of Administrative Law had "recalled"
Mr. Masin in a special appointment to hear the Cruz dispute rather than
follow regular order in the random appointment of an existing OAL hearing
officer/judge.

"First.
Williams strongly protests the irregularity of the Office of Administrative
Law's “recall” of Jeff Masin to conduct the hearing rather
than following a regular order of a random assignment of the case to
a neutral officer. Mr. Masin began the hearing acknowledging that he
had “been recalled” and appointed to the case because of
his past experience with the natural-born citizen issue. It appears
that rather than following regular order in the assignment of a neutral,
objective hearing judge, the Office of Administrative Law “recalled”
Mr. Masin. Any administrative economy achieved by recalling and assigning
an officer because of his specific knowledge of and history with the
subject/issue is of no consequence when considering the heavy costs
(if only in perception) of his prejudgment. It destroys any confidence
or reliability in the resulting recommendation/initial decision. To
state, as some are doing, that Mr. Masin was “cherry-picked”
for this case would not capture the ethical concern presented. Mr. Masin’s
special appointment raises a broader concern as to the future role of
the Office of Administrative Law as a component part of the Lt. Governor/Secretary
of State's internal deliberative processes in Election administration
and particularly in maintaining New Jersey's ballot integrity.

"Second.
It was telling that Masin also stated at the beginnings of the hearings
that he had not read the parties’ briefs (which had been due and
submitted for several days before the hearing); rather Mr. Masin spent
the days before the hearing reading a variety of secondary sources.
Mr. Masin’s incredible accomplishment in producing a 26-page,
quite-detailed recommendation in a one-day time period deserves related
note . It is now clear Jeff Masin had not changed his established opinions
on this issue from his time overseeing a prior natural born citizen
challenge in years past. It is more than just unfortunate that the Office
of Administrative Law would have irregularly “recalled”
Jeff Masin for this hearing in terms of fairness and the perception
of objectivity. No public confidence can be had in the resulting recommendation.
"

Exactly
what happened in my Seventeenth Amendment lawsuit I filed in Austin,
TX. A former judge was brought out of retirement to hear my case. He
looked like Santa Claus and I bet under that robe were jeans and suspenders.
He was given my case 15 minutes before court time and was totally unprepared
to hear it. More than 250 documents from the Library of Congress, a
CD which contained 3,000 pages and other evidence (not speculation)
which the judge simply ignored and in about 20 minutes it was all over.
Judge Strauss ruled fraud was just fine with him and the State of Texas.
(Texas
judges' misdeeds often kept secret by oversight commission)

It
is beyond reprehensible what has gone on in allowing ineligible presidential
candidates on state ballots for the past three presidential election
cycles. Equally as nauseating is the shenanigans and games to deny Donald
Trump delegates to be the nominee before the GOP convention in July.
Below are items I believe you'll find of interest. Don't need to read
them all at once ; hit a couple over lunch and work your way through.

Trump
Supporters Walk Out of Georgia Delegate Fight After Party Picks Cruz
Supporter...'Uproar in the Hall': "Donald Trump supporters
walked out of a delegate election in Georgia Saturday to protest a vote
that robbed Trump of all of his slated delegates from a district that
he won in the primary. A Cruz-Rubio alliance at the district convention
in Buford, Georgia helped to knock Trump supporters out of the district's
national delegation altogether. Cruz supporters implied that Trump's
people would “embarrass” the district at the convention
in Cleveland. Then things got heated."

"The
North American Law Center has issued an ultimatum to the Ted Cruz campaign:
"If Ted continues on – we are going to release the files
we have, two weeks from tonight, and we will bury Ted Cruz forever in
American politics. J. B. Williams, the co-founder of The North American
Law Center said on April 3, 2016, "We're talking about American
citizens (who) think a guy who's Canadian-born is eligible to be a U.S.
president – without any documentation whatsoever. If Ted continues
on – we are going to release the files we have, two weeks from
tonight, and we will bury Ted Cruz forever in American politics…
If we have to stop this guy from defrauding this nation, then we are
going to do that."

While
the charlatan media in America, cable, print and electronic, virtually
ignores eligibility challenges to constitutionally ineligible, Ted Cruz,
(unless it's a ruling against the Constitution which they all seem to
support) it is getting a lot of coverage on the Internet by independent
media who believe the U.S. Constitution matters.
